Hello
The game loads up to the title screen just fine. It lets me select my character then shows a 5 minute movie (in French?) that i can't skip (i've seen it a dozen times now). When the movie ends, it goes to a part where you see a person lying face down on the ground. Then the screen turns black and that's all, it returns back to windows.
I have the original game, i've updated every driver i can think of. I've recently reinstalled windows and i even saw one thread mentioning adding Asian characters to windows XP. I've installed the translation patch (i think i did it right, everything i've seen in the menu's thus far is still in Japanese). I don't know what else to do. Have any of you run into this problem before? Thanks!

Yes, the opening is a Japanese woman speaking in French. That's normal. The problem may lie in that you are not using App Locale or that you have not chosen to run non-unicode games in Japanese.

Thank you for the reply.
That fixed it. The game runs flawlessly and looks beautiful. It was well worth the 80 bucks.
Once again, thanks for the quick reply.

I do have one more question. I don't think the patch works. I've clicked on it but it's still in Japanese. I've used the file from this link:http://seldane.proboards107.com/index.cgi?board=yso&action=display&thread=1185822415
I just have a question (as i have much to learn of computers): Does this patch work for XP or is it just for Vista?
Thanks for reading.

There is NO translation patch currently in existence. At all. (I hesitate to mention that the game has been translated because I think it might confuse some people. But it has. You just won't be seeing the patch for it anytime in the near future because...well, because of a variety of reasons, not the least of which is the fact that a translation patch requires a lot of work aside from the mere translation. There are other reasons, but it's not my place, since I have absolutely no part in the translation or patch. If you want better answers than that, I can't help you.) This thread is about official patches from Falcom. ( This other thread is letting us know of the most recent one.) They fix gameplay and graphics bugs. That's all they do.

I know how to turn on unicode support, but App Locale, and . . . wha? How do you force it to run in unicode japanese, or...? Help Same issue.

Here is a link to the AppLocale download: www.microsoft.com/globaldev/tools/apploc.mspxInstall and run the program. When it tells you to choose which application to run with AppLocale, find the game's .exe in its game directory, and click Next until complete. It should make an icon to the AppLocale'd game. Use that icon to run the game. To run the game without AppLocale, go to Control Panel, and find "Regional and Language Options." Click that. Under the "Advanced" tab, the drop-down box should be whatever native language in which your computer runs. For me, it's "English (United States). Change that to Japanese and click OK. Windows will set up the Japanese settings, and prompt you to restart. Do so, then click on the Ys game and enjoy.

Ok, n00b question. I have EXACTLY the same issue with Origin in that it crashes when I see th guy lying face down.
I downloaded and installed AppLocale but what Language am I supposed to pick from the drop-down box there? I don't see Japanese Or Kanji in the list.
Help :-)
EDIT: I went and picked the YSO_WIN.exe file and let the language default to what AppLocale picked up (a lot of square symbols).
I clicked Next and then got the message: "Your system does not have the language support for the selected language installed".
EDIT II: I went into the Control Panel and chose to add Eastern Asian languages. There is a download that starts..but then at the end it asks me for a system CD to be inserted.
I'm on Windows XP (SP3) and my install disk is loooong gone.
Any chance I can do the Japanese Language install from some file available on the internet for download?

No. =/ Your best bet would be to download the image of the same OS you have. I have also ran into that same problem 2 years ago or so, and I did just that.

All you really need is the i386 folder; I recally having be able to download just that w/o the rest of the system. I'd suggest googling for it, thankfully XP is popular enough and so are the requests for the folder. I have been able to find it before.
